Trying to find a witty way to make a joke about the irony of you using the word "insert" in this case.

Failing.



Now this is awkward.

MOVE ALONG. NOTHING TO SEE HERE!

Don't make mistakes and you'll be okay without the backspace key.

Don't know what to tell you about the number four, though.

Laptop or desktop?

Your road to perfection has not yet ended, your keyboard still believes in absolution.

YOU ARE THE CHOSEN ONE, AUS!

Are the keys just sticking, falling off, or what?

You can buy new keys for like, a few dollars a piece. I used to have a website for that kind of stuff bookmarked. I'll have to take a look to see if it's still there. They're really easy to replace.

No it just doesn't want to work sometimes.

You can plug a USB keyboard into your laptop and use that as the input device, no? (Assuming it passes plug-and-play and installs the device driver on detection?)

This is the site I had bookmarked. If they just aren't popping back up, or act like they don't want to accept input, it's probably the rubber cup/bumper under the key.

Um ok. The unspoken options were to take it to the shop, or buy a new laptop, but I suppose those are the superior choices then. :/

Guess I should also mention, I'm mostly just assuming it's just worn out, rather than an actual hardware malfunction as a whole. If this is the laptop you use to play FFXI, I can see the 4 key being worn out pretty easily. Backspace is a pretty heavy use key (for me anyway) regardless of what it's being used for.

it doesn't do it all the time, and it just started doing it today.

Yeah... Unless other keys start randomly doing it out of the blue, I'd be willing to guess it's just the rubber contacts being worn out. Which would explain why it's hit-and-miss with whether or not the keys work.

My other post may have gotten missed between Schutz's post and yours, so I'll re-quote.

It's a pretty cheap fix. They even have videos posted that show you how to do it.

I use a cheapass acer keyboard but it works really well for me, I'm kinda picky with how the keys have to sound, feel, and the distance between them, so I hate getting new ones :/ Bought a keyboard for my PS3 but for some reason it wasn't a Swedish one so all the keys were in the wrong place >_>

The PS3 one you posted is pretty much a standard keyboard for us, except it's missing the number pad.

This is the only shot I have of my laptop's keyboard.

Yeah but it's completely different to any other keyboard here and after using the first type since I was 5 it's very difficult to switch over.

Not like you need a numberpad anyway, practically useless.

I really like laptop keyboards that incorporate the 10-key pad...I find it's great for use in MS-Excel and other programs.

I couldn't have played FFXI without a number pad.

Well, I could have, but it would have taken way too much getting used to.
